Best Crypto Wallets Of July 2024

Bitcoin remains the top cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Whatever the vicissitudes of the crypto market, investors remain committed to bitcoin as both a buy-and-hold asset and as a means of transaction.

Like other cryptocurrencies, bitcoin requires a crypto wallet for storage, and most of the leading crypto wallets—hot or cold—support BTC.

There are a few specialized wallets that do not support bitcoin. MetaMask, for instance, does not directly support bitcoin, as it is designed only for Ethereum-based crypto tokens. Other wallets may have a few quirks. Coinbase Wallet Web3 only supports bitcoin in its mobile app, for example.

Conversely, some crypto wallets are solely dedicated to the big “B.” Electrum only supports bitcoin. If that’s going to be the only crypto you keep in your portfolio, it’s a reasonable choice. It has never experienced a hack; plus it’s integrated with Ledger and Trezor.

Here are some leading crypto wallets that support bitcoin and other top major cryptocurrencies by market cap.*

*At the time of this writing, the top major cryptocurrencies (excluding BUSD) by market cap: bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, USD Coin, BNB, XRP, Cardano, Solana, Dogecoin, Polkadot, Dai, Polygon, Shiba Inu, Tron and Avalanche.

If you’re looking for a crypto wallet that supports Ethereum and bitcoin—but some of the other major cryptocurrencies—Robinhood’s new Web3 Wallet or eToro’s exchange wallet might be a good fit.
